Caramel coloring and other ingredients come from multiple areas all over the world. 2. Who made it? What is life like for those who made it? John Pemberton was the maker of Coca Cola.
Paul Haven was the author of the story above and it never provides any actaul words saying that Skidmore did the crime of murdering his brother by poisoning the pretzel he ate, but it does provide many facts of how it most likely was him and that is what made me think it was Skidmore. I will explain what in the story of "The Curse of The Poisoned Pretzel," made me believe that SKimore killed Macnchester to get the money. A case of a man murdered by his brother was never brought to justice, it was said to have ended by a simple choking hazard when really it was an inncident of an insane twisted family member. In the excerpt from the story, "The Curse of the Poisoned Pretzel," the author Paul Haven indirectly expresses his thoughts about the killing of the character named Manchester. Support 1:
The poet Sandra Cisneros uses imagery to illustrate a joyful tone in the poem “Good Hotdogs.” For example, “We’d rum straight from school instead of home”(Cisneros 610). This conveys joy since the children are so excited to get a hotdog. Also this displays the children’s enthusiasm and happiness for the hotdogs.
Men are unable to function in the extremely high pressure situations that women try to put them in, such as helping out in the kitchen or cleaning the house. In “Lost in the Kitchen” by Dave Barry, these incapabilities are highlighted and ridiculed by Barry in order to put a comedic spin on the situation. The use of different resources of language such as stereotypes, hyperboles, and comparisons all support the main point that men are subpar in the kitchen compared to their female compatriots. Throughout “Lost in the Kitchen”, Barry speaks of the kitchen as if it contains its own consciousness, a place where women are unparalleled and reign dominant over men. The kitchen seems to be described as a trap of sorts, and he states that he would not have a preference between landing a nuclear aircraft or going into that foreign domain.
Malcolm Gladwell’s “What the Dog Saw” People’s reliance on the straw man theory is prevalent in today’s world, and is an adequate yet shallow way of expressing one’s opinions and denouncing the counterarguments. The straw man theory occurs when someone ignores a person's position and instead exaggerates, misrepresents, or creates a distorted version of that position. Malcolm Gladwell, like many other authors of opinion-based pieces of literature, uses this theory as a method of persuasion. Gladwell’s “What the Dog Saw” uses this theory as a method of persuasion.
In Russel Baker's essay, "The Art of Eating Spaghetti", he was trying to express that what you end up doing shouldn't be determined by how hard it will be, but instead by if you want to do it or not. He says that he felt that he wanted to be writer, but knew that it kids didn't just graduate and be a writer. At the end, he says, "Writing couldn't lead to a job after high school, and it was hardly honest work, but Mr. Fleagle had opened a door for me." The most effect part of his essay was when he wrote about how proud he felt when Mr. Fleagle was reading his essay out loud and everyone was listening and laughing, because it's what he would feel when people read his future stories as a writer.

Everyone has a responsibility to do. However, for working student like me that having a part-time job while taking college courses is a big responsibility. I decided to go to school full-time and work part-time to learn to become independent. In the essay “Working at Wendy’s” by Joey Franklin, he makes a case for setting aside pride to provide the daily needs of a family. On the other hand, I think it was great to have the experience as long as it made me more money.
In the article “The Ketchup Conundrum” (2004), Malcolm Gladwell, longtime journalist with The New Yorker, justifies that perfection is plural in nature, and in an attempt to find perfection for the general public one will only achieve perfection from the perspective of a paucity of people. Gladwell proves this notion by discussing statistics that show the fault in singular perfection (“...data were a mess-there wasn’t a pattern”) by including proof of discrepancies (“...everyone had a slightly different definition of...perfect...”) through success stories that appear inapplicable to ketchup (“...the rules...which apply to...virtually everything in the super market, don’t apply to ketchup.”), and by leading readers to the discovery that Heinz

Almost everyone in this room has used a product from one of these enormous companies and brands. So why, what do makeup companies, clothing companies, and cleaning products have in common? All of these companies are just a fraction of companies that test their products on animals such as mice, rabbits, primates, cats, and dogs.
Don’t even get me started on the American food industry! The american food industry is one of the only food industries in the whole wide world that favors money over the health of its citizens. The food that most Americans eat is processed crap, if you can even call it food! How many of you have eaten popcorn, chips, candy, or crackers in the last week? The amount of chemicals in the food we eat as a country on a daily basis is freaking ridiculous.
